one of the ways I understand epigenetics to work is as follows...
it is about perceptions...positives perceptions and negative perceptions and can be created in different environments...
Like I mentioned in an earlier post...I can feed the pups first thing in the morning and right after I can feed them some wild pork as treats and they might not be interested because they are not hungry...that is a negative perception of what I want to create...then right after I grab a pork skin and drag it around to entice the pups to give chase and catch...I can not get the best out of these pups on account they aren't hungry and they are so full they don't want to give chase...all negative perceptions on account I created those negative environments...
Over the years I have used the power of hunger to my advantage for many different scenarios...
Now I will do it in a different environment...The pups are very hungry early in the morning...I have given these pups pork treats through the kennel fence and they now love the taste of pork because hunger intensifies their want to eat...a couple days later I scatter the pieces of pork in the yard and they want to get to them because they know they taste good...and they hunt hard for the treats...they are keenly interested and will hunt hard for them...their cells and brain were craving these treats...I created the environment and their biological being created the want to environment...
The next morning I show up with a nice pork skin drag and run it across their noses at the kennel fence and then I open the gate and they are giving hard chase and then I make sure they win by letting them catch and they set down anchoring the pig hide...
just doing the right things at the right time...and creating the right environment...
I create the right environment for the pups...but the pups biological environment is right for the training exercises created by their hunger...
the genes and DNA we inherit and the environment tweaks the changes whether it can be passed on to the offspring or not...in some cases yes and others not...
Quite a bit of what I have written is proven fact and the rest is my personal theories at work...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
